Its legit! Im thinking about getting a Stepchild and its zero camber. Cross reference threads and you will see :-)
No point making a new thread asking the same question.

Love to hear more experiences with flat camber!
Considering a board that is flat but, well I never really considered zero camber before!

I should add i want a park board that can handle the whole mountain.
I already have a hybrid rocker camber.

I´ve been on at least 20 cambered boards in my two decades of snowboarding. My Nitro Team Gullwing carves as well as almost any of them (except my boardercross-Palmers). The one thing a great cambered board preforms better in is catching an edge in a icy landing after some serious air!

My personal opinion is that rocker/flat boards is more forgiving on edgepressure and therefore can be pressed harder. With cambered boards, especially on groomers, i sometime press my board into a nosedives (the front edge cuts to deep) causing major bails..!! The rocker/flat boards i´ve tried handles this kind of carving smoother and don´t causes the same type of "nosedives".

Would love to demo. My next trip is to Stowe but they only demo Burton boards and Burton doesn't make a zero camber board

Burton fix 2010 is a zero cam. I saw it at burton outlet at 30% off. Almost pulled the trigger but ended up with a swindle.

is it true that you can size down on zero cambered boards since the entire effective edge is flat? seems like it would make sense to me. I was thinking of getting a 52 for a jib/park/groomer type board...i'm 6'1" about 165 lbs...
